4th Arkansas Infantry

Hey every one,

I have a question that I'm hoping someone can verify. My great grandfather and his brother fought under the CSA. My great grandfather, John D. Wolfe fought with the 6th Regiment, Arkansas Infantry, Company I, Pvt - Enl 7 Jun 1861 at Little Rock, AR in the "Lisbon Invincibles". He was captured 19 Sep 1863 near Chattanooga, TN in the Battle of Chickamauga and sent to MP at Camp Douglas, IL. Discharged 14 Jun 1865.

His brother, David C. Wolfe, on his headstone states "PVT CO B, 4 ARK INF", which I originally assumed was the 4th Arkansas Company B "Hempstead Hornets". However in the roll I found online his name wasn't on it. The I found out that it might have been 4th Infantry, Arkansas State Troops, but I cannot find any rolls.

Does anyone have any information that might help me validate his record?

Thanks!
